That's a sign in Delhi. But...wouldn't it make things worse to have an immoveable car in your space?

Triumph of the bike!
I have a friend who rides a 500cc Royal Enfield Bullet on our periodic rides around Sydney. It is British racing green in colour and precisely the bike I would have bought had I been a more hands-on biker.
He lusts after a Triumph Bonneville- one of the classic British road bikes that started life in the 50's (production stopped 1983). It's made a comeback and is a very desirable bike among riders of a certain vintage.
The Jethro Tull song: Too Old to Rock 'n' Roll- Too Young to Die! goes:
Other bikes once made by Triumph are also making a comeback. Here is the new Scrambler:
More here.
Personally, I like their cruisers, especially the Speedmaster.
The Jethro Tull song: Too Old to Rock 'n' Roll- Too Young to Die! goes:
He once owned a Harley Davidson and a Triumph Bonneville.
Counted his friends in burned out spark plugs
And prays that he always will.
But he's the last of the blue blood greaser boys
All of his mates are doing time
Married with three kids up by the ring road
Sold their souls straight down the line

The House that Brian and Sally built
A very educative weekend was spent in Wollombi to learn about the science and art of building a mudbrick house. Brian and Sally, pictured here, started this house with friends as a communal house to be shared among them. The original community dispersed and went their own way (including Brian's wife at that time). Brian and Sally stuck on however, true to their principals of living sustainably with a small footprint and built this house over a few years, with their own labour.
